Acute toxicity and genotoxicity studies on new melatonergic antidepressant GW117
Heliyon, 2023 GW117, a novel derivate compound of agomelatine that acts as both a 5-HT2C receptor antagonist and a MT1/MT2 receptor agonist, likely underlines the potent antidepressant action with less hepatotoxicity than agomelatine.
